"GRASS's main set is a languorous coffee shop, Kim plays A-reum, who quietly sits in the corner and eavesdrops sundry conversations of other patrons, and is mildly baffled when one of them approaches her for a rather audacious favor. He repeatedly extols her as "remarkable", but his request is simply beyond the pale. Only during the more familiar situations with her brother, who introduces his new girlfriend to her, A-reum's personal side and sharp edge emerge, superficial courtesy impaled by outright exasperation, who doesn't have a button shouldn't be pushed."

read my full review on my blog: Cinema Omnivore, thanks.

I felt very much like I was eavesdropping just like the 'main' character. The whole movie felt more like a theatre piece, with all of those long shots and dialogue, which fit well, since many of the characters in the movie were actors and screenplay writers. Very meta in this sense. And since there was no action per se, but more of a 'looking at people' interact with one another in moments of pain, need and grief, and the complex intertwine of relationships, grass felt more like a short study of human interaction. I liked it. I'm happy I watched it. Thank you Loan for the recommendation.
